'Twas most excellent.
And I killed the thread.
Yeah, really...I don't think I noticed much of a taste difference either, just liked the brown appearance. Made it slightly more appetizing to me.
It did turn out good! Except now it's after 2:30am and I have indigestion! LOL!!!
Plop plop fizz fizz.
We had that new low-carb pasta (Dreamfields) last night with dinner and I was bracing for the worst. For some reason they felt the need to add sorbitol and that usually is a nightmare for me. But with the small amount in the pasta and a reasonable serving size it was all ok. Hurray! Low carb pastas sure have come a long way since two or three years ago when they were marketing soy-based cardboard in pasta shapes. *shudder*
Good Morning, coffee has been sipped and gypsygirl believes it's her walk time. Brisk 21 degrees but no wind.
Looks like we're in for another quiet day in the Hobbit Hole.
Hope all's well out in the forest by the western sea.

Watching Thing from Another Planet.
What's in low-carb pasta? They use some sort of protein, I'm assuming, but what?
Morning! It's very windy here...they're saying gusts up to 45mph or so. Not as bad as the WA hobbitses are getting, but still mighty breezy.
Uh oh.....Matt Dillon just thawed out.
Is that dangerous?
Yep!
He's the Thing from another planet and he's gonna go on a rampage in a few minutes.
Hullo everyone! We didn't get much storm, really, though they got it bad all around us :~D
Today I think we're all going up to the beach house for the Super bowl...
Great....some egghead just had to go and germinate alien spores.
Good News!
Hair - that's great, the news here was showing trees down, powerlines down etc. 'Seattle may not be able to see the superbowl today...' Glad you're all okay.
Rosie - very glad we don't have your winds.
OT - just barely remember that one; Jim Arness, "GUNSMOKE" was a show our family always watched.
Well, the beach house says they are still without power, but the generator they've been waiting years to use is runnin' and the cable's working!
This isn't the first time there's been high winds all around us but it hasn't been too bad right here at home. We're in some kind of little hole, protected by the hills around us I guess... They had 58 mph gusts nearby, I don't think we saw any much more than 25.
Hehehe....
"What do you do to a vegetable?"
"Boil it, fry it...."
The Thing doesn't like fire.
Heh, hmmm. Generators are important in times like this. Guess there won't be any need for 'calm pony powder or liquid' today.
Say Hey to Ruthy for us.
Keep watching the skies....
